As long as there isn't anything next to the fence he can climb on to jump over or run up to bounce off of, a 4-ft. fence should be fine. Our pen is fenced with 4 ft. welded farm fence-----with landscape posts placed every 6 ft. and also for rails. But our pen is about 10,000 square feet.

Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble, or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

My Pigmy Buck rammed the fences when he got board...he was a mess, and a pet..so all around his pen the fences are bulging....they can climb trees too, I couldn't believe it..but they did ! ~Charm1704

My goat does the same thing. He loves ramming the fence in his goat "arena". What I did was........ the height of his horns and the area where he rams has (2) 2 x 4s nailed on top of each other ALL AROUND the perimeter. So when he goes to ramming the fence, he is actually ramming his horns into those (2) 2 x4 s. He can't break those.

The boards that you see is where he loves to ram his horns into. He has not been able to bust out of this area. The only time that he got out was when he pushed his spool near the fence and he jumped out. Since then, I have taken the spool out. He is too short and fat to jump out.
